Miley Cyrus: Floral Kimono Cardigan

Miley Cyrus was spotted out and about in a floral kimono cardigan, a piece which is definitely on-trend at the moment. Last February Miley wore a floor-length kimono from Nicole Ritchie’s Winter Kate line over jeans and I was not fond of that look at all. This outfit on the other hand is an improvement for a number of reasons: the kimono is shorter which makes it go better with jeans (I would have preferred the longer one over shorts or short dress), the color is brighter, and the fabric seems lighter and breezier. It’s a fresh spring/summer look while the long wintery kimono is just a don’t.

Get her Lovers + Friends Lovebirds Kimono in Springtime Floral for $150.00 or check out some cheaper alternatives:

Wearing a sheer skirt presents the conundrum of what to wear underneath so that you aren’t flashing the world your underwear or worse. You can always go with a nude slip, but another option is to wear a bodysuit and let your legs show through the skirt, which is what Sleigh Bells singer Alexis Krauss has done. She wore the Neon Beaded Fringe Body from Reverse ($59.65) under the cobalt blue Chiffon Full Length Skirt from American Apparel ($46.00).

Demi Lovato: Yellow Dress, Body Chain

Is Demi Lovato being sponsored by Topshop? She wore head-to-toe Topshop at the Austin X-Factor auditions a few weeks ago, and at today’s auditions in Kansas City she wore another four pieces from the UK-based clothing chain. She arrived in the Strappy Button Midi Dress ($70.00) with the Swan Cutout Bralet ($52.00) underneath and the Square Section Body Chain ($40.00) over it. Her Lady Mama Crystal Booties are from Topshop’s premium line in collaboration with by Chloe Jade Green and are quite pricey at $350.00. The only piece that I’m not sure about is her leather jacket with a studded skull design on the back, but you can grab a similar one at Free People.

The clunky body chain is a fun and fresh look, but the dress is totally shapeless and I can’t imagine it being very flattering on anyone. Definitely not her best look!
